The Spider's Touch (2006)
“Placed on this isthmus of a middle state, A Being darkly wise, and rudely great: With too much knowledge for the Sceptic side, With too much weakness for the Stoic’s pride, He hangs between; in doubt to act, or rest; In doubt to deem himself a God, or Beast; In doubt his Mind or Body to prefer; Born but to die, and reasoning but to err; Alike in ignorance, his reason such, Whether he thinks too little, or too much: Chaos of Thought and Passion, all confused; Still by himself abused, or disabuse...d; Created half to rise, and half to fall; Great lord of all things, yet a prey to all; Sole judge of the Truth, in endless Error hurled: The glory, jest, and riddle of the world!
